Hi, for last 5 or so years I've had a couple of Honda DC5's and keep almost changing to an S15.
The main thing that puts me off is all the scare stories about how annoying they can be on a daily basis. I've found a few posts about people commenting on Silvia's being terrible in the wet. Like the back ends stepping out all the time, even when going slow. Is this really a problem? I can't see why they would always be going sideways even if you are just driving normally... I've had RWD before with a MX5 and if you weren't hammering it round corners it was fine. Is it just the turbo that makes the difference on a Silvia?
Just looking for a bit of feedback and a general opinion on what they are like to live with.
Cheers
